The China Cup Team Tournament invites teams from all over Europe. It runs alongside the 5th Grand Slam Yike Cup, we will run this Team Tournament over two days. Since the 1980s, when the famous European Team Tournaments ran in Düsseldorf and Cologne, team-competitions have become very popular.

Single player can register too. On Saturday morning we will build the teams out of these players, please come a bit earlier.

Mode

  • Teams with minimum 3 players + 1 possible substitute player
  • 5 rounds McMahon System
